Matt Stephens takes shelter inside a team bus to give you a roundup of another busy week of racing.

The Giro D'Italia gave us plenty of surprises, including 2 consecutive stage wins for Pro-Continental team Bardiani-CSF. Rigoberto Uran laid claim to the Maglia Rosa on the Stage 12 time trial and will be the man to beat as the race enters it's final week.

Elsewhere, we round up the results from the Tour of Norway, Tour of Japan, World Ports Classic and the US National Championships.

We also check in on the Strava club, pick the winner of our caption competition and tell you what's coming up on the channel.

Our tweet of the week comes from Michael Hepburn of Orica-Greenedge.
